Documentary Screening: "The Rise and Rise Of Bitcoin"

PLEASE NOTE - FILM NOW STARTING AT 6:15PM!

Bring your own popcorn!

Many people in the Bitcoin world have been following the progress of the first major documentary film about the topic, "The Rise & Rise Of Bitcoin". It seems to have been in development for a long time now - but finally the release date is here!

As a special one-off event, I've arranged with Nicholas Mross, the director, that we'll screen the film in CodeBase. All being well, Nicholas will then call into the meetup by video from Pittsburgh afterwards to discuss the film and answer some questions.

This is one for beginners and seasoned scene stalwarts alike.

This probably goes without saying but I will anyway: anything we can do to help the film's success (i.e. buying an individual copy) would be great for helping to work on that education of the general public that we all know remains a challenge.

The reality is that if the film gets significant numbers of pre-orders via iTunes in particular before the October 10th release, Apple may put it on their front page which then leads to significantly greater opportunities to increase the audience. Nicholas is really doing us a favour by letting us screen this so I'm sure he would really appreciate any support that we can give on this front.

Couple of points about logistics:-

• We'll start the film by 6:30pm at the absolute latest so please be in as close to 6pm as possible to avoid any issues with being let into the building etc. and to hear any intro talks.

• There's a strict limit on attendance for a number of reasons. If you want to come, please sign up ASAP.

Cheers!
